The scope encompasses roofing-related sheet metal operations such as coping caps, edge metal, panel metal, gutters, downspouts, metal canopy repairs with welded seams, awnings, and miscellaneous related work using aluminum, stainless steel, and copper materials. The solicitation includes an estimated 1,340 annual hours of standard labor, 75 hours of non-standard labor, six annual call-out fees for roofing services, and 160 hours of standard labor, 25 hours of non-standard labor, and six annual call-outs for non-roofing services.

The initial contract term begins upon School Board approval and automatically renews for up to four additional one-year periods contingent on appropriations, contractor performance, continued need, and mutual agreement.

Standard payment terms are 45 days net with options for check, Visa, or ACH transfer. All bidders must acknowledge receipt of this addendum with their proposal submission. The addendum is governed by the laws of the State of Florida and was issued by Rebecca Baez, Procurement Officer, on February 10, 2026.
